It's been three years since the events of the last attack by Cipher on the Orre region. Things have been going well for the people of the land and many of the changes in the land have been for the better. Team Snagem has seemingly disbanded for good although reports of people matching the description of former Snagem members occasionally pop up here and there. The evil Organization that was known as Cipher has apparently vanished and hasn't been heard from since it's defeat. Pokemon trainers from across the regions come to compete in the Colosseum battles that have become quite famous among the other regions. It seems that both the people and Pokemon of the Orre region can finally live in peace.

Whatever you may have been doing, be it training or working or simply traveling the region with your Pokemon and taking in the sights, it appears that someone has taken notice of you. Letters have been sent across the Orre region requesting the assistance of trainers such as yourself.

A young professor new to the Orre region who is working in Phenac city has asked that you meet him at his lab for reasons unknown. All it says in the letter is that he has uncovered something that could be big news for Pokemon trainers everywhere.

Will you accept the invitation?

Beginner to medium skill level. I'd rather not have any expert training at the moment.

Fair enough. I might recycle an old character from an RP that never took off. What would you say about a Johto native who was involved in Pokeathlon before he came to Orre? He would have some experience, but really his skills and experience would be in training and not as much in battling.

Oooh, an Orre RP! I'm glad I caught you guys in the beginning stages. No guarantee I'll be able to join this RP, but I'll be thinking about a character :)

Name: Nicolette Baudin

Gender: Female

Age: 19

Personality: Nicolette is quiet and introverted, though not particularly shy. She works hard to be organized and precise. She is a nerd with a lot of book smarts, but also naive and lacking in street smarts. She loves reading and learning new things, though sometimes she can be nervous about new hands-on experiences.

Nicolette is particularly interested in history and dreams of becoming a Pokemon Historian. One of her major weaknesses is that she expects situations to go according to how they have gone in the past, and she can become confused or flustered by unexpected outcomes.

She is interested in raising Pokemon as friends, but she doesn't have much experience battling. Nicolette views battles as a way to observe and contribute to a long-standing tradition of friendly competition honoring wars of the distant past. She doesn't dream of becoming a great competitive trainer, but she does give battling a try on occasion, largely because it seems to make Rush happy.

Nicolette currently works part-time as a librarian's assistant while raising her two Pokemon. She is comfortable and content with her life. Content, but not happy. While part of her wants to stay safe at home with her books, another part has always craved a greater purpose, to play a larger role in the history that future generations will study.

Appearance:



Image created with hapuriainen.deviantart.com/art/Pokemon..

History: Nicolette was raised as an only child in a fairly privileged and sheltered home. She spent most of her childhood studying and reading. Thus, she never had many friends, and she considered the family Furfrou Alphonse to be her best friend.

Nicolette has always been particularly interested in Pokemon-related history. Part of her yearned to set out on grand adventures to witness history first-hand. However, she doubted her abilities to handle the perils of the wide world.

Nicolette finally took her chance when she learned that a major conflict had just ended in the Orre region, and patient trainers were needed to help rehabilitate Pokemon from a mysterious condition called Shadow. She was matched with Rush the Electrike, largely because the organizers thought another canine-like Pokemon would help him adjust. Since then, Nicolette has aimed to stop being a passive witness to Pokemon history and start becoming a part of it. The problem is, she's not sure how to accomplish this goal...

Home town: Camphrier Town, Kalos, but has been living in Phenac City, Orre, for two years

Starting Pokemon:

Alphonse Rene Gagnon IV: Furfrou; male; mid-thirties; docile nature; level 10; attacks: Tackle, Growl, Sand-Attack, Baby-Doll Eyes; Alphonse comes from a line of carefully bred Contest Pokemon, and he's proud of that lineage even though he has never won a Pokemon Contest himself. He has been the Baudin family pet since before Nicollete was born. He is calm, serious, and level-headed, always preferring to solve problems with words and wits. Following the rules is important to him, and he considers violence outside a formal battle setting to be disgracefully rude. Secretly, he's a little afraid of battling, though he won't let anyone know it. Alphonse has developed great patience (but also some vanity) through years of grooming fads. However, justice is important to him, and he will argue and/or fight fiercely against injustice, whether the offender is friend or foe. Though he's not very good at expressing affection outwardly, Alphonse cherishes his role as a father figure for Rush... troublesome though the Electrike may be.

Rush: Electrike; male; older teen; bold nature; level 16; attacks: Electro Ball (egg move), Tackle, Thunder Wave, Leer; Rush was born to a Shadow Houndour father and a non-shadow Electrike mother. Cipher turned him into a Shadow Pokemon at just a few weeks old. Rush was trained to be a heartless fighting machine, and that's the only purpose in life he has ever known. When Cipher fell, he and some other Shadow Pokemon were purified and sent to live with "rehab" trainers. Rush is still getting used to his new life, and many things about non-shadow life confuse him. He is still easily angered, aggressive, and quick to fight. However, he is learning how to be curious and care about others. Rush is incredibly brave and feels most comfortable on the battlefield. His greatest fear is disappointing his "masters" Nicolette and Alphonse, a fear he faces every day in the attempt to learn how to be "normal".

Name: Veena Shodin
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Personality:

Fun loving and calm, Veena takes after her father, someone she often looked up to. She isn't afraid to take chances and it can often end up biting her in the butt in one way or another but she bounces back pretty quickly. She's not one for taking things lying down and is loyal to those she deems worthy.

She is very athletic and loves running around with her pokemon in the mornings, taking it as her time to think to herself and bond with her pokemon. Mornings are very important to them and without this morning run, her day usually doesn't go so well.

When it comes to disliking and liking things, Veena is open to just about everything and is willing to at least try something once, just so she at least tell her father she tried when he tries to heckle her about it.

Veena lives her life with eyes wide open, knowing that each day would bring some new adventure, something else to enjoy.

Appearance:


Dark brown hair frames her tanned small face, oval in shape. She gets her eyes from her mother as they are large and a very deep shade of blue, the only feature she gets from her mother. She is relatively short (5'), a staple of her even shorter father but is built very well and is very flexible. She enjoys training with her pokemon, doing yoga and other such activities.

Her wardrobe usually includes tight sleeveless shirts of varying colors, black and white being her favorites, and black skinny jeans. Her shoes are boots her mother designed a long while back and were a test pair she'd given to her daughter. The gloves were a gift from her breeder father.

History:

Veena grew up in a rather roller-coaster type life, never sure what sort of mood her parents would be in when they were together. After a while, her mother moved out of the nursery, tired of her father's (And his baby pokemon's) shenanigans, and rented her own studio where she began making and designing her own clothing line.

Veena, though she spent most of her time with her father in the nursery, also spent a good deal of time with her mother's brother, Uncle Joe, who by some miracle, had managed to separate himself from the drama occurring in their family (Grandfather never did like like his daughter's choice in men). Her mother's side of the family was very well off, unlike her father's side who were not wealthy but not poor either and were content to stay that way. Uncle Joe had always been the person she'd run to when things weren't going very well in her own home and he taught her the power of meditation and the beauty of psychic pokemon and the comfort they could bring.

When she turned 10, he gave her her first pokemon, despite her father's insisting on taking his own pokemon for her. Uncle Joe gave her a male Ralts who she later named Arthur. Since then, she became fast friends with this pokemon, learning all sort of things along side him. He and she often when to Uncle Joe's house in Agate Village and would train and meditate together.

When she was 14, her father insisted that she take on another pokemon, this time one he'd bred for her. She couldn't exactly say no but she'd never had any intentions of having anyone at her side besides Arthur. However, she fell in love immediately with the pokemon he'd given her. A Riolu, small but fiesty. She laughed watching her try to attack every pokemon that seemed to even try to look at her wrong and she reminded her a lot of her mother. Which was why she decided to name her Vie, her mother's name being Violet. She had to deal with the jealousies between the two pokemon as well, which helped her grow as a trainer, though she'd rather have avoided it in the first place. Ralts wasn't exactly the strongest pokemon and Vie easily knocked him out, something she had to constantly scold him for.

Home town: Phenac City

Sorry it took so long. Thanksgiving took a serious bit out of my time.

Name: Claude Martel

Gender: Male

Age: 17
Personality:
One of the first things people notice about him is his confidence, call it arrogance or cockiness because that's what it is. As far as he is concerned, he can do anything because he knows he has the brains and the discipline to see it through. This world is his for the taking, but he's willing to share with those who fight as hard as he does. Overall he is friendly though. He believes that above all things, you need to respect yourself for who you are. It irritates him to no end to deal with people who can't do that. Rainer has a simple sense of humor, in that it doesn't take much to make him laugh. Stupid jokes, dirty jokes, toilet humor, clever wordplay, corny wordplay all do it for him. He just loves to laugh. He's also a flirt. He definitely enjoys he female form and has no shame in letting a girl know he's interested. He's become a good bluffer and can pull off some pretty big lies without a hint of doubt. That's not to say he's a good liar overall. When it comes to personal matters, guilt can easily get the best of him.

Appearance:



History:

Claude was born in the Johto region, growing up just outside of Goldenrod City. His mother had a job in the the city, while his father, an outdoorsman who would never dream of living in the big city, worked at the National Park. As such he had a comfortable normal life. Not lacking in anything, but not having any excess either.

Claude found himself at home in both places, and quickly grew to love exploring both and getting to know the Pokemon. Spending so much time at the Park, he naturally developed an affinity for bug-types, eventually going so far as to catch a few. He even managed to catch a Scyther during one of the park's contests. (Unfortunately he came in second place to a Weedle... he suspects they couldn't let him win due to his dad working at the park).

Eventually he set his eyes on the Pokeathlon Dome. It became a thrill to him to work alongside his Pokemon to train them in their physical abilities. It was this that led to him searching out different varieties of Pokemon, to test their strengths and weaknesses in the Dome. He grew to be a rather successful athlete in a few years, making it to the Supreme Cup and competing against the best trainers and even some Gym Leaders at 15. His Scyther even managed to master all five Pokeathlon stats, and eventually earned enough points to trade for a Metal Coat and evolve.

Unfortunately, Claude's run came to an end when his mother was transferred to Gateon Port. A series of unlucky business decisions and subsequent shifts in upper management left her with the choice to transfer to Orre for two years or lose her job entirely. So the family moved. Claude left most of his Pokemon behind with a friend, as he didn't have the heart to separate them from their passion. However he brought along his Aipom, which never really liked competing anyway. With the move, Claude's father had to find a new job, now working a menial job unloading cargo in a warehouse. He doesn't see his parents as much, as they are always busy. Once he feels his family's all settled in, he plans to take off on a journey to train and battle in the Colosseums. If he can't train Pokemon to compete athletically, he'll just have to train for battle. Home life has been uneasy as the move has been hard on all of them. He's never heard his parents argue quite so much. He might just head out earlier than planned.

Name: Sean

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Personality: Sean is an overall nice guy. He tries to be respectful of other people and their Pokemon. The only time you see him angry is if you mess with his Pokemon. Mess with Sean all you like, just don't screw with his Pokemon whom he considers his best friends.

Appearance:

History: Sean was born in Pyrite town and despite the rough nature of the town, grew up without too many bad influences. He would often watch the battles in Duel Square and became enamored with the idea of getting his own Pokemon team and one day battling other trainers. At first, he didn't see Pokemon as anything more then creatures to battle with but this changed shortly.

One day, after watching a battle in Duel Square late at night, he went home for the night. He was awoken an hour later by the cry of a Pokemon outside the house. After making sure his parents were still asleep he went outside and saw something that nearly broke his heart and shocked him. He saw a Beldum floating only a few centimeters above the ground. It was wounded and was barely able to stay afloat. As he looked closer, he remembered seeing the trainer he was watching in duel square using the Beldum. He remembered the trainer using the Beldum had lost. He wrapped the Beldum in a blanket and carried it inside and made sure it was fed and cared for. For a while after, the Beldum couldn't float and Sean made sure to stay by it for as long as he could. After a week, it regained the ability to float and followed Sean around wherever he went. It was shortly after this that Sean took the Beldum as his own and the two began to train together. After training for a few weeks the two of them finally fought a trainer in Duel square and managed to win easily. Since then, Sean and Beldum have traveled the Orre region looking for new Pokemon to join their team.

A few weeks after the two of them went off on their adventure across Orre, Sean discovered that when they were sleeping, something or someone was raiding their food. After a few days of trying to discover who the thief was, they finally managed to catch the thief: It was a starving Quilava that was skinny enough that it's ribs could be seen. Sean took instant pity on it and gave it a good portion of their food. He assumed that the Quilava would go on it's way but instead of running off it followed Sean and Beldum wherever they went. The Quilava continued to follow them around and Sean decided to bring it onto their team. Quilava has been with them ever since.

Home town: Pyrite town

Starting Pokemon: Beldum. Quilava
